Ribosome profiling reveals pervasive and regulated stop codon readthrough in Drosophila melanogaster
Dunn J, Foo C, Belletier N, Gavis E, Weissman J
Elife
. 2013 Dec;
2:e01179.
PMID: 24302569
Ribosomes can read through stop codons in a regulated manner, elongating rather than terminating the nascent peptide. Stop codon readthrough is essential to diverse viruses, and phylogenetically predicted to occur...

PMID: 23134728
The protein kinase v-akt murine thymoma viral oncogene homolog (AKT), a key regulator of cell survival and proliferation, is frequently hyperactivated in human cancers. Intramolecular pleckstrin homology (PH) domain-kinase domain...

PMID: 21958208
Background: The fungal pathogen Histoplasma capsulatum is thought to be the most common cause of fungal respiratory infections in immunocompetent humans, yet little is known about its biology. Here we...

PMID: 21333653
A remarkable feature of prion biology is that the same prion protein can misfold into more than one infectious conformation, and these conformations in turn lead to distinct heritable prion...

Mol Biol Cell
. 2005 Jul;
16(10):4792-813.
PMID: 16030248
The pathogenic fungus Histoplasma capsulatum escapes innate immune defenses and colonizes host macrophages during infection. After the onset of adaptive immunity, the production of the antimicrobial effector nitric oxide (*NO)...
